hunting. It always seems like once you switch gears, that's when the
deer start showing up!
I then work into some conservation news. First thing is the new bill to

over a decade of stakeholder engagement so it is long overdue. Next we
switch gears to the vice presidential debate and JD Vance's comments on
selling federal land to build housing. This is dangerous and it doesn't
